"Brother Ronan, tell us more about your wizard captain?"
"Yes, Ronan. When you left here last time, you said you were going to the northern seas to find the Bannings Island that is not polluted by the red moon. How come you became the second mate on someone else's ship not long after setting off?"
"Only the second mate, not even the first mate... Huh? Then who is the first mate on your ship?"
Ronan glanced sideways at the others around him and curled his lips and said, "Don't ask, I won't tell you anything about the boss and first mate!"
Of course he couldn't tell them that he was kidnapped by Wei En.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be laughed to death.
And about the beautiful first mate, he could say even less.
If these people reveal the matter, based on his observation of the captain during this period, he may be hung from the mast and whipped.
"drink wine!"
"Cheers!" Seeing this, the other two pirates also raised their beer glasses.
After putting down the wine glass, Ronan was sitting in the tavern box holding a beautiful girl. His mechanical arm played with the two hanging clocks and fiddled with the hands on the huge dial.
Although he didn't have much touch or skill, there was a smile on his face that was familiar to all pirates.
"It seems that the captain is very capable and makes you follow him so wholeheartedly?" asked a pirate on the left with an eyepatch on his face.
"Of course, our captain is very strong."
"Stronger than the 'Golden Giant' Dis?" Another pirate asked with a half-smile.
Ronan's hand movement paused, his face darkened, and his triangular eyes stared at him gloomily, "Finley, if you want to know, you can go to my boss and give it a try!"
"Try?" The pirate named Finley was not worried and said with a smile: "I don't dare. After all, the one who even dared to rob the Dawn Church's ship..."
"Then shut up!"
"Okay, Finley." The one-eyed pirate smiled and waved his hand, indicating: "It's a happy thing to see my old friend appear safely on Alexei Island today. It's mainly for fun, hahaha."
"And as to who is stronger between the wizard and Dis, the recent Kordo Gazette has published it. The 'abnormal wizard' Wynn Loft has not yet reached the legendary level."
If it does not reach the legendary level, it is far from being comparable to the "Golden Giant" Dis.
"Let me tell you, Captain Dis's strength in this sea area is second only to the 'Emperor' of the Black Pearl and Captain Suad of the Araniga. How could it be possible..."
boom!
boom!
Ronan had a cold face and smashed the table in front of him with one punch, scattering the drinks on the floor.
The one-eyed pirate and Finley looked at him blankly, "You..."
"You two had better pray that you don't get hit by our Leonard on the sea in the future, otherwise... hmph!"
After the words fell, Ronan shook off the surprised girl next to him, got up and left.
"You, him? How dare he?"
Finley looked at the messy floor and said angrily: "Even when I was in the 'Golden Giant' Dis pirate group, I didn't protect their captain like I do now."
"Forget it, Finley." The one-eyed pirate looked thoughtfully towards the door, "He has found a clear future."
"The future? Aberrant wizard?"
The one-eyed pirate didn't explain much. He patted his shoulder and sighed: "Remember what he just said. If you see the Leonard when you go to sea in the future, remember to stay away."
"I……"
Finley's face turned green and red, he raised his head and hummed: "At sea, it's not certain who lives and who dies!"
On the other side, Ronan left the tavern with an angry look on his face, still cursing.
If Alexei Island wasn't the station of the Black Pearl, he would have just taken action.
How do these two bastards know how great the captain is?
Captain Dees, the "Golden Giant", is certainly very strong, but in the face of a disaster like Darkman Island, he would never choose to rescue other pirates first.
Similarly, when pursued by Dawn Church ships, he would only choose to flee in "embarrassment".
Only Captain Wayne, when encountering danger, would first take the pirates to a safe place, and then face the danger alone...
"Asshole, after the ship is repaired, I will definitely advise the captain to block them on the islands! Don't let..."
"Second Officer Ronan?"
At this time, in the alley of Tavern Street, in the shadow beyond the reach of the red moon, a dark figure looked at Ronan who was walking by and asked.
"Um?"
Ronan glanced at him and immediately became wary.
There are dangers at sea, unpredictable weather, terrifying deep-sea aberrations, and dreams at night, which cannot be avoided by humans.
But in the city-state, he knew that the greatest danger was not the pollution of the red moon's light, but those people with ulterior motives who appeared at night.
Some are followers of evil gods who confuse people, some are extraordinary beings who are contaminated and about to lose control, and some are evil extraordinary beings who specialize in doing bad things...
Just like now, a person hiding in a dark corner only has the word "bad guy" engraved on his body.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?"
While speaking, Ronan glanced at the guards belonging to Alexei City-State not far away from the corner of his eye.
He had already made up his mind - when in danger, he would shout for help.
Are all pirates really reckless fools?
"Looks like it's you."
The black shadow stepped out slowly, shrouded in a black robe, only revealing a pair of bright and deep eyes.
Eye?
Ronan's heart trembled. Just as he was about to open his mouth to call for help, he found that his body could no longer move.
Damn it, it’s a supernatural attribute with the ability to attack mentally!
"follow me."
A smile flashed in the black shadow's eyes, and he turned and walked deeper into the alley.
Behind him, Triangle Eyes followed step by step. His walking movements were natural and his face was calm. Everything looked normal.
This is bad... Captain, help!
…
…
Alexei city-state, Baskabiru hotel.
There was no flame in the fireplace on the side, but a small bright red tree. The slightly flickering red light illuminated the living room warmly like a flame.
There is a wall lamp on each of the four walls. When the dawn candle burns, it flickers with dim light, dispelling the slight blush coming from the windows and doors.
The two centipedes at the entrance and at the stairs are full of green and exude a faint aroma of grass, making the whole room look much fresher.
Ericon Baskabiru was sitting on the sofa on the first floor, holding a thick book and reading it with gusto.
Da da……
"Um?"
Hearing the footsteps on the stairs behind him, Ericon Baskabiru raised his head slightly.
It's so late and there are still guests who haven't rested yet?
He waved to the family guard standing at the counter opposite and motioned to wait at the stairs.
After a while, the two of them stood neatly on the side of the stairs, and saw Wayne wearing wizard robes appearing at the end of the long wooden ladder.
A smile appeared on Ericon's face and he said respectfully: "Wizard Wei En, it's so late, do you want to go out?"
The person walking downstairs slowly was none other than Wayne, who had returned to the hotel after exploring the entire Alexei Island.
He didn't rest. After returning to his room and changing his clothes, he went downstairs with a calm expression, wanting to check out the city-state center.
"I heard that there is a wonderful gladiatorial fight in the central area tonight, and I want to go and have a look."
"Glare fight?" Ericon looked at the clock hanging on the wall and muttered: "The first gladiatorial fight should have ended by now. You..."
"It's okay," Wei En smiled nonchalantly, "I just want to take a look there. I'm quite curious about the pirates and noble merchants on this island."
Pirates, nobles?
Ericon's face remained calm, but his heart was filled with fear.
The Wynn wizard seemed peaceful, but he was not a good-tempered person.
Not to mention the tens of thousands of Basques and thousands of priests in the city-state of Castel. Since he went to sea, he first slaughtered the entire Storm Hunter, then sank Darkman Island, and then killed the pursuing Dawn. Ruling Huberto Watson et al…
Just from the newspaper reports, his hands were stained with the blood of tens or even hundreds of thousands of people.
Would such a person go out of his way to watch a gladiatorial fight to simply see the life of pirates and noble merchants on Alexei Island?
Ericon didn't believe it!
"That is indeed a good place, Wizard Wynn."
"Really?" Wayne looked at him with a half-smile, "Mr. Ericon, why didn't you go there tonight?"
"I want to, but here..."
Ericon pointed to the counter politely, "The family's business cannot be compromised. I must serve every customer here."
"Then you are an excellent heir."
Wayne didn't know how true his words were, but he didn't really care.
"By the way, Mr. Ericon, is there any progress on the batch of centipedes I ordered?"
"I was just about to tell you that I have already contacted the family, who will use the Nightmare Sect's messenger to send the batch of Thousand Leaf Grass to Custer City State as soon as possible."
Wayne nodded, "Thank you very much, Mr. Ericon."
Although the messenger of the Nightmare Sect is not a teleportation circle and cannot move living creatures to other places, it is an excellent choice for sending things.
"This is what I should do, you're welcome." Ericon smiled shyly and asked, "I forgot to ask you, did you receive the invitation letter when you went to the arena?"
"Invitation card?"
"Don't you?"
"No."
Wei En only thought about going there to find the Black Pearl, but he neglected how to enter the arena.
But he didn't worry too much. Even without an invitation, he had plenty of ways to get in there.
But it is not convenient for Ericon to know this.
"I have it here."
Ericon smiled and took out a black envelope from the inner pocket of his jacket. There was a delicate jewelry on the stamp - it was the symbol of the Black Pearl, the deep sea monster Rasim.
"I just don't need it, you can take it."
"Why is this so embarrassing?"
Wei En took the invitation and said with a smile, "Thank you very much."
"No, you're too polite."
At this point, Ericon paused and the smile on his face faded, "But there is one thing I have to remind you."
"oh?"
"You may have heard that 'One-Eyed' Eldorad Walls likes to find people to fight in the gladiatorial arena."
"Well, I heard Ronan say that." Wei En's expression changed and he frowned slightly: "You mean, he might find me?"
"It's not just him," Ericon's eyes reflected his appearance, and the corners of his mouth turned up, "It's very likely that even Ms. Flanda Carneiro, the 'pretty hand', will come looking for you."
Wayne was stunned: "Flanda Canero, 'Pretty Hands'?"
He looks much better than when he first arrived, but he is still far from handsome.
The female pirate who has the right to choose her mate should not be interested in him...
"I understand, thank you Mr. Ericon for the reminder."
Seeing that he still decided to go, Ericon had no choice but to salute respectfully and said: "I wish Wizard Wayne a happy time in the arena."
With his knowledge of "One Eye" and "Beautiful Hands", newcomers like Wynn Wizard who are making a splash in the Cordo Sea will definitely attract their attention.
What's more, Captain Henrik had killed the Black Pearl before.
But it's the guest's choice whether to go or not. He has fulfilled his duties as a hotel owner.
The rest is waiting for the show the next day!
After bidding farewell to the innkeeper, Wei En picked up the dawn lantern and walked casually towards the station of the Black Pearl in the center of the city-state.
Although it is already nine o'clock in the evening, most of the shops in the area are still open and doing business.
Except for the Baskabiru Hotel, which is close to the trading area, and there are not many people coming and going, the rest, such as the mechanical weapons and equipment stores, magic stores, etc., are visited by many people.
"Two bottles of healing potion, no, just one, and get me a bottle of antidote..."
"Boss Zamo, can you give me a discount? Five gold pounds is too expensive. Four gold pounds and five shillings is a good price. How about it?"
"You have money to drink in a pub and sleep with girls, but don't have money to buy life-saving potions?"
"hey-hey……"
The waves and clouds on the sea were treacherous, and most of the gold pounds stolen by the pirates were spent on enjoyment.
If you ask them to spend money in a tavern, nine out of ten will raise their limbs and agree, but if you ask them to spend the money on other things, it will be more uncomfortable than killing them.
In contrast, those extraordinary people who were born into noble families and had extraordinary bloodlines were even more precious about their lives.
Wayne's mental perception was always on, and he scanned each store one by one, focusing on the Jimenez Ship Repair Shop.
He was very concerned about the sailboat model that attracted Tina's attention, and he even wanted to know where the model came from.
"...Boss, Wizard Wayne is coming this way."
"Shut up! Go and inform Tan Sri and ask him to activate the rune circle!"
"so……"
"Don't you know that wizards have very powerful spiritual powers? Maybe..."
After hearing this, Wei En already understood that there was indeed something wrong with this repair shop.
The sailboat model in the repair shop, the followers of the Desire Sect who arrived early...
what about others?
Wei En wanted to know how many arrangements Director Alais had prepared on the island in order to obtain the source of the disaster in Tina.
"Wizard Wynn?"
"Um?"
Although he was a little surprised when he saw Fried Jimenez taking the initiative to say hello, Wayne's face remained calm and he chuckled: "Good evening, Mr. Fried."
"Good night, Wizard Wynn."
Fried came forward enthusiastically and saluted: "It's really you. I just saw it from upstairs and thought it was someone else. Are you here to inquire about the Leonard's maintenance progress?"
"No," Wei En said, pointing to the pirate group station in front of him: "I just got an invitation letter to the arena and wanted to go and have a look."
Freed felt relieved, "The gladiatorial fight? Was it the one organized by 'One-Eyed' Adorad Walls? I'm afraid it's too late for you to go over now."
He had just stood at the window and looked out, and when he saw Wei En, who looked calm and seemed to be wandering around, he was already praying.
I pray that the young wizard is not here to find me, and I pray that there is nothing wrong with the sailboat model!
Now it seems that the alarm can be lifted!
"It's okay, I'm just going to join in the fun."
"It's really lively there, but unfortunately I still have things to do, otherwise I would go over there with you to watch the gladiatorial show."
"Really? Let's meet together next time."
"No problem..." Fried's smile froze, and he laughed a few times and said: "It's getting late, so I won't disturb you to go to the arena. See you next time."
"goodbye."
With that said, Wei En nodded to him and walked straight through the repair shop.
This time, he did not take action against Fried, so as not to alert the enemy.
According to the known situation, it is obvious that Alais already knew that he was on Alexei Island and had made various arrangements to wait for him.
It is equivalent to saying that he is in the light and the enemy is in the dark, but they do not know that he will be prepared.
Therefore, he does not intend to take action now to destroy the opponent's arrangement.
Instead, prepare to investigate secretly, and then make corresponding arrangements one by one.
Wait until Alais shows up - it will be a surprise!

oh?
Containing murderous intent?
The Twilight Sect also has arrangements on Alexei Island?
When he noticed this prompt, Wei En had just passed through a pirate regiment's station.
He glanced around and his eyes fell on the pirate group stationed behind him, "Golden Dis..."
It turned out to be them!
Last time, when the female captain belonging to the Golden Dis came over, there were several mystical monks from the Twilight Sect on board.
It seems that the connection between the pirate group and the Twilight Sect is closer than imagined, and even such a temporary station has arrangements to contain murderous intent.
Wei En thought for a few seconds, then turned around and continued walking towards the center of the city.
To solve the Twilight Sect, it cannot be solved by dealing with the station of a pirate group...
Not long after, he came to the small building where Mitra was, but the maid was not there?
Wei En thought for a few seconds, then his consciousness sank into his mind, and he penetrated into the purple original light group.
You have to laugh, you have to laugh more happily.
This bastard Honatan actually took me to the box...
Didn't you know there are "one-eyed" and "beautiful hands" here?
This was definitely not Honattan’s idea!
So, are the other two bastards aware of me? Or did they discover something unusual about Honatan?
"Um?"
Faintly hearing Mitra's inner voice, Wei En frowned slightly.
Didn’t she already reject Honatan’s invitation to go to the arena?
Why are you there now?
Thinking of this, Wei En quickened his pace and quickly left the garrison area, then walked through an empty square and arrived at the center of the city-state.
Looking up, I saw the majestic arena standing in the night, with deep marks on the outer wall made of rough rocks.
A huge torch was inserted into the city wall, and the flames jumped, casting bright light to illuminate the surroundings, making the outline of the arena more distinct in the night.
"Stop there and show me the invitation!"
At the entrance, several pirates chatting excitedly saw someone coming, and their smiles instantly faded.
Wei En took out the invitation and handed it over, looking at them calmly.
Compared with the people guarding outside the high wall, the pirates in front of them were much stronger in terms of their clothes and the original power in their bodies.
The leader of the pirates also observed Wei En. After thinking for a moment, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he recognized his identity.
"You are not from the Baskabiru family, how come you have their invitation letter?"
"I happened to live there. He gave it to me as a gift."
Wei En asked in reply: "Isn't it possible that someone who is not a member of the Baskabiru family cannot enter the arena with this invitation letter?"
"Others can," the pirate said with a fierce look, "but you, the man who killed Captain Henrik of the Storm Hunter, why are you here?"
"Of course I'm here to watch the fight." Wei En spread his hands.
Several pirates looked at each other and nodded slightly.
Then, the leader of the pirates stretched out his hand and said, "You can go in, but you have to pay an entrance fee of five thousand gold pounds."
Wei En was stunned, "Five thousand? Gold pounds? Is this specifically targeting me, or does everyone have to pay an admission fee?"
There are so many spectators in the arena, and if everyone pays five thousand gold pounds, "One Eye" will make a fortune in one night alone.
"Pay the money if you want to go in!"
"Do not talk nonsense!"
Wei En looked at them with a half-smile, his deception talent already activated in his heart.
"Of course you have to go in, and you have to pay for it."
As he spoke, he enveloped several people with that strange spiritual power while taking out five... one-penny coins.
"for you."
The leader of the pirates took the five coins, looked at them, and muttered in confusion: "When did five thousand gold pounds become lighter?"
"Just now, it was ordered by the Pope of Dawn Church in order to save production costs."
The pirate glared at him, as if blaming him for talking too much, and waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, go in quickly."
"Thank you."
With a smile, Wei En walked around several people and entered the huge entrance of the arena.
After working on it for a long time, it didn't matter whether there was an invitation letter or not. In the end, it had to be solved by relying on the talent of fraud.
Passing through a huge and wide arch, there is a dark and deep corridor in front of you.
There are two rows of armored statues standing on both sides of the corridor. They hold spears and look like real warriors guarding the place.
Vaguely, Wei En could hear bursts of laughter and curses coming from the end of the corridor.
"Damn it, you pirate hunter was broken into pieces when touched by that monster. I'll pay you gold pounds!"
"Damn it, I still beat that unlucky guy in the second game, don't die!"
Several pirates standing at the end of the corridor, cursing and smoking, couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Wei En who had just arrived.
"Come now?"
Wei En glanced at him and explained calmly, "Some things have been delayed."
As he said that, he walked around a few people.
"You know him?"
"I don't know... looks familiar..."
Wayne ignored the conversation of the pirates behind him and walked straight out of the corridor into the arena.
The first thing that caught the eye was a huge chandelier hanging high in the center of the arena, its dazzling light illuminating the entire arena as if it were daytime.
Then came the packed audience and the huge arena under the chandelier!
"Captain, are you also here to watch the gladiatorial fight?"
